The current model offers valuable insights for materials science, heat exchangers, renewable energy production, nanotechnology, manufacturing, medicinal treatments, and environmental engineering. The findings of this study have the potential to improve material design, increase heat transfer efficiency across various systems, enhance energy conversion processes, and drive advancements in nanotechnology, medicinal treatments, and engineering design. The goal of the current research is to analyze the effects of thermal radiation and the volume fraction of nanoparticles in MoS2-Ag/engine oil-based hybrid nanofluid flow passing through a cylinder. After performing a substantial similarity transformation, the nonlinear dimensionless framework is recast as ODEs. The Yamada-Ota and Xue models are then applied to the dimensionless equation setup, which is numerically solved using the BVP4C approach. The resulting velocity and temperature fields, corresponding to various parameters, are examined and compared across both models. This investigation demonstrates a significant variation in heat transfer rates between the Yamada-Ota and Xue models, with the former having a larger impact. The velocity and temperature fields decrease as the magnetic field parameter increases in both nanofluids. However, as the magnetic field parameter values grow, the velocity fields in the two nanofluids behave differently. The Yamada-Ota and Xue models are used to determine the behavior of the hybrid nanofluid flow over a nonlinear extended cylinder. In all situations, the velocity and temperature fields exhibit superior decay characteristics.

Estimation of heat transfer coefficient and friction factor with showering of aluminum nitride and alumina water based hybrid nanofluid in a tube with twisted tape insert.

Twisted tape is one of the active thermal proficiency boosting technology which has been deeply examined because to consistent efficiency findings and easy implementations. Thermo-hydraulic effectiveness of tubes fitted with twisted tapes is becoming highly significant. Although twisted tapes can cause swirls and disturb boundary layers, this is the most widely used method for improving convection.

Pharmaceuticals, biological polymer synthesis, eco-friendly uses, sustainable fuel cell innovations, microbial-enhanced extraction of petroleum, biological sensors, biological technology, and continual mathematical modeling refinement are all examples of how bioconvection is applied. This study examines the bio convectional viscoelastic-micropolar nano liquid flow with non-uniform heat sink/source, motile microorganisms that move across a stretched sheet. Thermal radiation and thermal conductivity are also explored. Brownian and thermophoresis diffusion effects are taken into account. The system of a higher partial differential equation is transformed to ODEs by using the appropriate similarity functions. Such reported equations are implemented with the computational tool MATLAB shooting approach using a bvp4c solver. The variations of numerous flow parameters comprise velocity, temperature, concentration, and motile microorganism profile. Various important, interesting transport numbers are numerically and graphically demonstrated with physical justifications. The bouncy ratio parameter reduces the fluid's velocity profile whereas the material parameter increases it. For increased melting parameters, the micro rotation profile improves, but it deteriorated. For the Prandtl number and temperature ratio parameters, the temperature profile is negative. The melting parameter influences the concentration profile. The microorganism's profile is decreased bioconvective Lewis numbers and is higher for the magnetic parameter. The current model has many features in the manufacturing industries, engineering works, physics, and applied mathematics.

Comparative study of ternary hybrid nanofluids with role of thermal radiation and Cattaneo-Christov heat flux between double rotating disks.

Heat and mass transfer are crucial to numerous technical and commercial operations, including air conditioning, machinery power collectors, crop damage, processing food, heat transfer mechanisms, and cooling, among numerous others. The fundamental purpose of this research is to use the Cattaneo-Christov heat flux model to disclose an MHD flow of ternary hybrid nanofluid through double discs. The results of a heat source and a magnetic field are therefore included in a system of PDEs that model the occurrences. These are transformed into an ODE system using similarity replacements. The first-order differential equations that emerge are then handled using the computational technique Bvp4c shooting scheme. The Bvp4c function in MATLAB is used to numerically solve the governing equations. The influence of the key important factors on velocity, temperature, nanoparticles concentration, and is illustrated visually. Furthermore, increasing the volume fraction of nanoparticles improves thermal conduction, increasing the heat transfer rate at the top disc. The graph indicates that a slight increase in melting parameter rapidly declines the velocity distribution profile of nanofluid. The temperature profile was boosted due to the growing outcomes of the Prandtl number. The increasing variations of the thermal relaxation parameter decline the thermal distribution profile. Furthermore, for some exceptional instances, the obtained numerical answers were compared to previously disclosed data, yielding a satisfactory compromise. We believe that this discovery will have far-reaching ramifications in engineering, medicine, and the field of biomedical technology. Additionally, this model can be used to examine biological mechanisms, surgical techniques, nano-pharmacological drug delivery systems, and the therapy of diseases like cholesterol using nanotechnology.

The dominant characteristics of hybrid nanofluids, including rapid heat transfer rates, superior electrical and thermal conductivity, and low cost, have effectively piqued the interest of global researchers. The current study will look at the impacts of a silver and cobalt ferrite-based hybrid nanofluid with MHD between a revolving disk and cone. The collection of partial differentiable equations is converted into a set of ODEs via similarity transformations. We used the Homotopy analysis approach from the BVPh 2.0 package to solve the ordinary differential equations. The volume proportion of nanoparticles increases and the temperature distribution profile also increased. It is more efficient for metallurgical, medicinal, and electrical applications. Furthermore, the antibacterial capabilities of silver nanoparticles might be used to restrict the growth of bacteria. A circulating disc with a stationary cone has been identified to provide the optimal cooling of the cone disc device while maintaining the outer edge temperature constant. This study's findings might be useful in materials science and engineering. The usage of hybrid nanofluid in heat transfer and heat pumps, coolants in manufacturing and production, producing cooling, refrigerators, solar thermal collectors, and heating, air conditioning, and climate control applications are only a few examples.

The thermal processes with inclusion of nanomaterials provide a wide range of applications pertaining to heat exchangers and cooling of compact heat density devices. The current research investigates the three-dimension flow of hybrid nanofluid comprising TC4(Ti-6A-14V) and Nichrome 80% Ni and 20% Cr nanoparticles mixed within engine oil as the base fluid for the enhancement of heat and mass transfer rate. The effects of homogeneous-heterogeneous processes and thermal radiation are incorporated. The heat transfer occurs due to a rotating inclined stretched sheet is discussed against prominent factors such as thermal radiation, inclined angle parameter, rotation parameter, and heat source/sink. The leading mathematical formulation consists of a set of PDEs, which are then transmuted into ordinary differential equations using suitable similarity transformation. The numerical solutions are obtained by using MATLAB's built-in function bvp4c. The results for velocity profile, temperature profile and concentration distribution are evaluated for suitable ranges of the controlling parameters. The graphical result shows that when the angle of inclination, magnetic parameter, and the volumetric concentration of hybrid nanomaterials increase the axial flow profile of the hybrid nanofluid is reduced. However, the rotation parameter reveals the opposite response. The temperature is intensified with an increment of heat source/sink, shape factors, and magnetic field parameter. For enhanced nanoparticle volumetric concentration, the temperature of the fluid rises up. The graphical validation is also illustrated using streamlines and statistical plots for hybrid nanofluid.

Thermal transport analysis of six circular microchannel heat sink using nanofluid.

Electronics devices growth in the last decade of the twentieth century ushered in a revolution inside the electronics segment. Continuous micro-sizes and operation cause these devices to heat up, resulting in a reduction in their performance or damage to their parts. Because heat can decrease device performance and life span while also wasting energy, offering an incorporated and effective cooling system has become a significant part of the design of device equipment.

The CFD ANSYS (R19.2) FLUENT software package is used for modeling, meshing and simulation of the current study.

Recent progress in melting heat phenomenon for bioconvection transport of nanofluid through a lubricated surface with swimming microorganisms.

The cooling of numerous microelectronic devices has become a need in today's world. Nanofluids, a novel type of heat transport fluid containing nano-sized particles embedded in a host liquid, were developed a few years ago. Impact of ultra-fine nanoparticles with oil, water, or ethylene glycol produces these fluids. Nano-liquids have a variety of applications, including engine cooling, electronic devices, biomedicine, and the manufacture of thermal exchangers. The main objective of current research article is to scrutinizes theoretically, the effects of axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic flow of bio-convective nanoliquid through a moving surface in the occurrence of swimming microorganisms. The idea of the envisaged model is improved by considering the consequence of thermal radiation, activation energy with generalized slip effects under convective boundaries. The present analysis is developed in the form of mathematical formulation and then solved numerically. The governing flow equations are transmuted into dimensionless nonlinear ODEs system by compatible similarity transformations and then integrated this so-formulated highly nonlinear problem numerically via bvp4c built-in scheme in MATLAB. The significance of influential parameters versus velocity field, temperature profile, concentration field and motile density of microorganism's profile are examined with the aid of graphs and tabular data. The physical interpretation of outcomes highlight that the velocity receives increment for amplified mixed convection parameter. The thermal profile is found to be reducing with a greater Prandtl number. The concentration profile of nanoparticle boosts up for greater activation energy parameter. The microorganism's profile is reduced via bioconvection Lewis number. This investigation contains the significance of bioconvection phenomenon, thermal radiation, slip effects and activation energy under convective boundary conditions. These impacts are used in axisymmetric, stagnation point flow of bioconvective magnetized nanofluid containing swimming gyrotactic motile microorganisms over a lubricated surface. The present analysis is not yet published.

The significance of slip boundary conditions with thermal radiation implications on a steady flow of nano suspension over a rotating disk with a constant magnetic field is discussed in this research investigation. Here Iron oxide [Formula: see text], Zirconium dioxide [Formula: see text], and Titanium [Formula: see text] are recruited as nanoparticles and water [Formula: see text] as a host fluid. The appropriate similarities transformations are used to transfer main PDEs into a system of nonlinear ODEs. The set of ODEs is then solved via shooting approach (bvp4c solver) a built-in function in MATLAB. The depictical outcomes of the physical flow parameters like thermal radiation and velocity slip parameters are revealed and clarified with the assist of figures. The slip parameter significantly reduces the velocity profiles, according to this investigation. The pressure is declined for the higher estimates of the magnetic parameter. The thermal profile was uplifted for the rising values of the thermal radiation parameter. Meteorology, meteorological, atmospheric research, biochemical engineering, power engineering, transportation production, solar energy transformations, sensing micro fabrication, tumblers in polymer manufacturing, and other fields will benefit from this suggested model. The suggested study has been developed in response to these kinds of practical consequences. This work is unique in that it investigates the consequences of a magnetic field, slip boundary conditions, and thermal radiation on nanoparticles flow across a disk. The recent study is innovative, and it could be used by other researchers to learn more about the heat exchange behavior and reliability of working fluids.

Computational Analysis of Nanoparticle Shapes on Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Due to Flat Horizontal Plate via Solar Collector.

The present work discusses the 2D unsteady flow of second grade hybrid nanofluid in terms of heat transfer and MHD effects over a stretchable moving flat horizontal porous plate. The entropy of system is taken into account. The magnetic field and the Joule heating effects are also considered. Tiny-sized nanoparticles of silicon carbide and titanium oxide dispersed in a base fluid, kerosene oil. Furthermore, the shape factors of tiny-sized particles (sphere, bricks, tetrahedron, and platelets) are explored and discussed in detail. The mathematical representation in expressions of PDEs is built by considering the heat transfer mechanism owing to the effects of Joule heating and viscous dissipation. The present set of PDEs (partial differential equations) are converted into ODEs (ordinary differential equations) by introducing suitable transformations, which are then resolved with the bvp4c (shooting) scheme in MATLAB. Graphical expressions and numerical data are obtained to scrutinize the variations of momentum and temperature fields versus different physical constraints.

On unsteady 3D bio-convection flow of viscoelastic nanofluid with radiative heat transfer inside a solar collector plate.

Nanoparticles are used in industrial and engineering by allowing for faster heat transfer rates in microchips, vehicle cooling, food processing, and nuclear reactors. This research aims to scrutinize the three-dimensional bioconvectional flow performances of viscoelastic nanofluids through a elongating sheet with motile microorganisms. Radiative impact and solutal boundary conditions are studied here. The impacts of thermophoresis, Brownian motion, and bioconvection are also considered. By using suitable similarity transformations, the PDEs are converted into ODEs. The numerical and graphical results are calculated with the help of shooting scheme built-in function Bvp4c in computational tool MATLAB. The graphical and numerical importance of physical engineering parameters like local skin friction, local Nusselt, local Sherwood, and local motile microorganism numbers are discussed here. The thermal profile is enhanced for the higher estimations of the Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameter. The heat profile is boosted up for the increasing variations of the thermal radiation and the thermophoresis parameter. The energy profile is improved by increasing the estimations of solutal Biot number while declining for mixed convection parameter and unsteadiness parameter. The microorganism profile decays for Peclet and bioconvection Lewis number while rising for buoyancy ratio parameter and bioconvection Rayleigh number.

Molecular and Enzymatic Characterization of Flavonoid 3'-Hydroxylase of Malus × domestica.

Malus × domestica (apple) accumulates particularly high amounts of dihydrochalcones in various tissues, with phloridzin (phloretin 2'-O-glucoside) being prevalent, although small amounts of 3-hydroxyphloretin and 3-hydroxyphloridzin are also constitutively present. The latter was shown to correlate with increased disease resistance of transgenic M. × domestica plants. Two types of enzymes could be involved in 3-hydroxylation of dihydrochalcones: polyphenol oxidases or the flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase (F3'H), which catalyzes B-ring hydroxylation of flavonoids. We isolated two F3'H cDNA clones from apple leaves and tested recombinant Malus F3'Hs for their substrate specificity. From the two isolated cDNA clones, only F3'HII encoded a functionally active enzyme. In the F3'HI sequence, we identified two putatively relevant amino acids that were exchanged in comparison to that of a previously published F3'HI. Site directed mutagenesis, which exchanged an isoleucine into methionine in position 211 restored the functional activity, which is probably because it is located in an area involved in interaction with the substrate. In contrast to high activity with various flavonoid substrates, the recombinant enzymes did not accept phloretin under assay conditions, making an involvement in the dihydrochalcone biosynthesis unlikely.

Numerical simulation for bioconvectional flow of burger nanofluid with effects of activation energy and exponential heat source/sink over an inclined wall under the swimming microorganisms.

Nanofluids has broad applications such as emulsions, nuclear fuel slurries, molten plastics, extrusion of polymeric fluids, food stuffs, personal care products, shampoos, pharmaceutical industries, soaps, condensed milk, molten plastics. A nanofluid is a combination of a normal liquid component and tiny-solid particles, in which the nanomaterials are immersed in the liquid. The dispersion of solid particles into yet another host fluid will extremely increase the heat capacity of the nanoliquid, and an increase of heat efficiency can play a significant role in boosting the rate of heat transfer of the host liquid. The current article discloses the impact of Arrhenius activation energy in the bioconvective flow of Burger nanofluid by an inclined wall. The heat transfer mechanism of Burger nanofluid is analyzed through the nonlinear thermal radiation effect. The Brownian dispersion and thermophoresis diffusions effects are also scrutinized. A system of partial differential equations are converted into ordinary differential equation ODEs by using similarity transformation. The multi order ordinary differential equations are reduced to first order differential equations by applying well known shooting algorithm then numerical results of ordinary equations are computed with the help of bvp4c built-in function Matlab. Trends with significant parameters via the flow of fluid, thermal, and solutal fields of species and the area of microorganisms are controlled. The numerical results for the current analysis are seen in the tables. The temperature distribution increases by rising the temperature ratio parameter while diminishes for a higher magnitude of Prandtl number. Furthermore temperature-dependent heat source parameter increases the temperature of fluid. Concentration of nanoparticles is an decreasing function of Lewis number. The microorganisms profile decay by an augmentation in the approximation of both parameter Peclet number and bioconvection Lewis number.

The uses of nanofluid in cooling technology is growing. The nanofluid is made up of metallic and nonmetallic particles that are distributed in a base fluid. This research provides a summary of fuel cell models, uses, and how they function. Researchers have made significant contributions in the following era due to the importance of bioconvection in nanotechnology and a variety of biological systems. The idea of the recent work is to evaluate the aspects of the Cattaneo-Christov (C-C) heat and mass flux model, the second-order boundary with melting phenomenon on the bioconvective flow of viscoelastic nanofluid across a cylinder. The nature of the activation energy, thermal conductivity is also taken into account. Appropriate similarity transformations are utilized to reframe the PDEs of the modeled system into a system of ODEs. The governing equations for the renovated system of ODEs are treated by a shooting function. Here bvp4c built-in function computational tool MATLAB is used. The two-dimensional flow has ceased application in several areas, such as polymer industry, material synthesis technology, nano-biopolymer computer graphics processing, industry, mechanical engineering, airplane structures, and scientific research, which is much more useful in nanotechnology. The results of emerging important flow-field parameters are investigated with the aid of graphs and numerical results.

Ethnophytotherapy Practices for Wound Healing among Populations of District Haripur, KPK, Pakistan.

Wounds, burns, cuts, and scarring may cause a serious problem for human health if left untreated, and medicinal plants are identified as potentially useful for wound healing. Therefore, the study focused on ethnophytotherapy practices for wound healing from an unexplored area, Pakistan. Ethnophytotherapeutic information was collected through well-planned questionnaire and interview methods by targeting 80 informants (70 males and 10 females), in the study area. Data was analyzed through quantitative tools like use value (UV) and credibility level (CL). A total of forty wound healing plant species, belonging to twenty-nine families, were being used in forty-six recipes. Herbs constitute (35%), shrubs (30%), trees (30%), and climbers (5%) in the treatment of multiple human injuries. For remedies preparations, leaves were most frequently utilized (52%) followed by whole plant, flowers, twigs, roots, bulb, bark, rhizome, resin, oil, leaf gel, latex, gum, and creeper. The most form of herbal preparation was powder (34.7%) and poultice (32.6%), followed by decoction, bandaged and crushed, in which 40% internally and 60 % externally applied. The drugs from these plants seem to be widely used to cure wounds: Acacia modesta, Aloe barbadensis, Azadirachta indica, Ficus benghalensis, Nerium oleander, and Olea ferruginea with higher use values (0.75). Local people are still connected with ethnophytotherapies practices for curing wounds for several reasons. This ethnomedicine and the wound healing plants are under severe threats; thus conservation must be considered. Further research should be directed towards implementing pharmacological activity on these invaluable botanical drugs.

Surface engineering of nanoporous substrate for solid oxide fuel cells with atomic layer-deposited electrolyte.

Solid oxide fuel cells with atomic layer-deposited thin film electrolytes supported on anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) are electrochemically characterized with varying thickness of bottom electrode catalyst (BEC); BECs which are 0.5 and 4 times thicker than the size of AAO pores are tested. The thicker BEC ensures far more active mass transport on the BEC side and resultantly the thicker BEC cell generates ≈11 times higher peak power density than the thinner BEC cell at 500 °C.

Intermediate-Temperature Solid-Oxide Fuel Cells with a Gadolinium-Doped Ceria Anodic Functional Layer Deposited via Radio-Frequency Sputtering.

We investigated the effects of the insertion of a gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) anodic functional layer (AFL) on the electrochemical performance of intermediate-temperature solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). Fully stabilized yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) was used as an oxygen-ion-conducting and support material. Nickel-Samaria-doped ceriathin film was used as an anode material, while screen-printed lanthanum strontium magnetite served as a cathode material. In order to enhance the interfacial reaction on the anode side, a GDC-AFL with a thickness of about 140 nm, deposited via radio-frequency sputtering, was inserted into the anode-electrolyte interface. SOFCs with and without a GDC-AFL were electrochemically characterized. In an intermediate temperature range of about 700 - 800 degrees C, the application of the GDC-AFL led to an increase in the peak power density of approximately 16%.
